What players say
Tons of fan references to the first two movies. And while you can tell it is a budget game, they did the most of said budget. It has good pacing, decent gameplay and a very faithful atmosphere. This game is clearly a love letter to the first two Terminator movies and it shows.
1 more review, not recommended
Might have been good back in 2009 when it looks like it was made. boring loot/scrap, you need energy cells to make rifle ammo but not 9mm...
